Unable to Print to Default Printer

[claskew]

Hi All,

I am unable to print to the default printer in a report in Access 2007. When the print button is hit, a Save As box opens with the printing screen grayed out behind it. Why is this happening?

What "print button"? What is your default printer? Is it PDF or similar?

The print button is in the report itself. It is used to print directly from Access to the printer. But I am receiving the Save As box before it prints out, in which the Save As box is canceling out the print option entirely.

Which Access version? What is your default printer?

Access 2007 and my default printer's name is pubprt01ps. It is on the network.

You must be viewing the Report View. What is the code behind the button?
